Iphone 4 stuck between apple logo and loading circle after trying to update to IOS5

Since trying to update to IOS5 and getting the errors that most people are getting i.e. an unexpected error occurred (3004), my Iphone is now stuck between the Apple logo and the loading circle and it just keeps cycling between those 2 screens. It is not even recognised by Itunes when I plug it in.....
Anyone else got this? Any advice to try and get my Iphone 4 out of this cycle?

I too am having exactly the same problem, I can't even get to do a restore. Please can someone help?

Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions,
If you can't restore the iPhone from recovery mode, it will need service.

I will help you to solve your problem, don't worry just follow as I say.
1. Firstly it is not a big problem just do as I say.
2. Connect your device to the PC and then launch the iTunes software.
3. And then go for the option of 'Restore' in that iTunes.
But if your device doesn't respond to it.
4. Then try to update the iTunes software to latest version.
And using windows OS means you need to uninstall the whole previous version of software and need to download and install the latest version of it.
5. And if you are having the third party apps such as Antivirus and etc are installed then it will object your phone to respond to iTunes. So you need to update your iOS software at any cost, which is the only way to fix iPhone stuck on Apple logo.
All the best

Iphone 4 stucks at Apple logo and loading cycle. How to fix it?

Hi, i have an iphone 4 v4.3.3. After i installed some tweaks, it now got stuck at Apple logo and loading cycle. I try to get into safe mode, but it doesn't work. What should i do now? Do i have to restore it? If so, what version can i restore to? Help me please! Thanks in advance.

Hello i_rath
You would need to restore your iPhone by following the steps in the article below. You would need to put your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. The version of iOS that will be installed will depend on what version of iTunes you are running.
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

HT1414 PLEASE HELP, my iphone stuck on apple logo and i need my data

How to upgrade or restore my iphone 4 but to keep somehow my pictures and video, because my iphone stuck on apple logo. Already have 5.1.1 iOS on it. PLS what to do ???

Your data are already gone. If you don't have any backups either on a computer or in iCloud you are out of luck. The only option is to restore it from Recovery mode.

Ipod touch 3G frozen on Apple logo and loading circle sign thing

My ipod touch 3G randomly turned off this morning and when i turned it on, it got stuck on the Apple logo. i have tried resetting it, but it just comes up with the apple logo and the loading circle sign thing. i cannot restore my ipod, as my computer that i sync my ipod with is curently dead and the charger isn't working, so i am waiting for a new one. Therefore, i cannot restore my ipod onto our desktop computer. Itunes on the desktop computer still recognises the ipod and charges it as well, though it won't sync and i can't try restoring it and it just won't work properly. This is a major dilemma.

Hey Fellow iPod user,
Try holding doen home and sleep
or you can try this
1: PLUG YOUR IPOD INTO YOUR COMPUTER!!!
2: HOLD THE "HOLD" AND THE "MENU" BUTTON UNTIL THE TOUCH'S SCREEN GOES BLACK AND SHOWS THE APPLE LOGO AGAIN THEN RELEASE THE BUTTONS!!!
3: WAIT ABOUT 5-15 MINUTES!!!
4: YOUR COMPUTER WILL MAKE A "CHIME" SOUND AND THEN THE IPOD WILL SHOW THE LOCKED SCREEN WITH THE BATTERY LOGO...
Cheers.

Iphone is stuck in recovery mode and cannot restore after trying to update to iOS6 - not jailbroken

I have an iphone4s, and the question basically says it all - after trying to update to ios6, the udgrade downloaded to my computer and started loading onto my phone. However it sudeenly just stopped an turned into the balck screen asking to plug into itunes. When I do this, it says I have to restore the phone, but when I try to restore, it says there is an error (3014).
I have tried:
- pressing the home and top buttons unti the apple appears
- Checked all security software and the ports aren't blocked
- Have tried pressing option+restore to choose ios6 and ios5.1.1 - neither has worked
- Its been like this for about a day and a half now, and I have probably tried to restore it at least 50 times to no avail, always with the same error code.
What can I do??
Is this something to do with how busy the appl servers are? And when should I expect to be able to use my phone again?

Yeah same exact problem as me. EXACTLY. In a way I'm glad more than just me are having the problem so I know it's probably not on my end and on the apple side....I HOPE that is what it is.
MAN, a whole day and a half???? Crap I need my phone to work....
I really think it's the apple servers because it errors 3014 right when iTunes says "verifying phone....." something.... It goes away so fast I can't read the rest, but I think that is the step where it verifies phone to the apple servers, which are overloaded, I assume.
It's gotta be that. How many other people are having this same exact issue?

IPod Touch stuck in a cycle between Apple logo and loading sign, recovery mode not working.

I have a 4th generation iPod touch (I think it's 4th gen) and it is stuck in a vicious cycle. It started by just randomly crashing while I was using it (many of the apps were not functioning properly beforehand). It went to the Apple logo for a little while, and then went to a loading sign for a few minutes. Suddenly, the screen flashed white, and appeared to be turned off. Then it turned back on to the black logo, and the cycle began again. i have attempted many times to put it in Recovery mode, but when I hold the Home and Sleep/wake buttons, it "turns off" but only for a few precious seconds before beginning the cycle again.
Another thing, I never downloaded iOS 6 because I didn't want to lose the old YouTube app. That may be a hindrance.
At first I wondered if it could be a virus, but now I don't think so.
I am very sentimental about this iPod, and I have a lot of pictures and high scores on it that I would prefer not to lose, if possible, however, I'd rather lose that than the whole iPod. I will gladly go to the Genius Bar, but I wanted to see if anyone on here could help me out first.
Any ideas on how to get it working normally again?

I helped someone earlier who had the same problem. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3374810?

IPod touch 4g stuck on apple logo with loading circle

So here is the deal. I found an old iPod after it being lost for 3 years (i thought it was stolen, but it was actually in Texas in a car we sold to my aunt, that's a really long story). Anyways When i tried to charge it, it is stuck on the apple screen with a loading circle. I have reset it by using lock and home button, but that doesn't work. I saw where it says connect to iTunes, but when I try that iTunes wont let me use it because it has a password on it. And i cant get into the iPod to enter the password. Many things say to restore it, but i really don't want to do that because i believe it has pictures of my friend who died in a car wreck. If you can give me any advice on what to do, I will love you forever. THANKS!

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is how it works even though it is not how you want it to work.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

I just got a new ipod touch 4g yesterday and it is stuck on apple logo and loading screen

i just got a new ipod touch yesterday. i was uploading it today. when i was downloading the new software 5.1 it does the same thing it did to my old one which was a ipod touch 4g also. it goes to the apple logo then the loading screen then it turns white, then it does it all over again. i have done everything and and really getting annoyed. could it be the software? please someone help me.!

- Try a reset.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connect to computer and try to restore via iTunes.
- If the iPod continues to cycle like you describe, let the battery fully drain. It may take a while. After charging for an hour try the above again.

Help needed please, with Iphone stuck with apple picture and progress bar after software update attempted

Help needed please, everytime I try to update the software version on my iphone it comes up with a message saying it could not be completed and is now frozen with the apple picture and progress bar on it. Do I unplug it and hope the macbook pro sees it again, I also stupidly did not back up before starting the download which I realise I will have to go back to the previous back up. This keeps happening, everytime I do this type of update, I'm starting to think I should just give up on updating my software on the Iphone. I thought it was happening because I was using a window based computer to do the updates, this time I used my Macbook Pro. Please somebody help
